The scheduled core router upgrade did not go according to plan. We encountered several problems along the way such as bad fiber boards, and routing tables issues.After a few hours of struggling, we decided it wasn't a good idea to keep our customers waiting any longer so we stopped the process, backtracked to the backup router and back online we were. In other words, we're back to square one. Things accomplished: 0, zero, zilch, nada. We may be doing this again later on tonight. You'll get posted here on what's going to happen.

In the mean time our backup core router is happily running all routing segments with very little lag.Though, last night we have encountered some strange slowness and routing issues. Problems are normal now.
